A Woman 
   I am a woman
 Tranquil and sensitive as you say
 I cook and clean as you portray
 I am a woman 
 Sweet and obedient as you want
 I seek no demand, I seek no escapade
 I am a woman
 I bare a child, I am not audacious and wild
 I cuss not, I speak a tongue of politeness
 I am a woman
 My vessel is a shell, fragile yet hard
 I fall, and I crack, yet I hatch
 I am a woman 
 I evolve, I develop wings
 I learn to fly but glide one with the wind 
 I am a woman
 I hunt yet I eat last, I forage for my young 
I strive for a beak of power but so humble in the sky
 I am a woman
 I dare not sit in a nest, for that is what you intend of me
 I build a nest for that is what I intend to be
 I am a woman

Really good use of repetition! "I am a Woman".

Wow! Such an inspiring poem about gender stereotypes. As someone who loves sociology, this poem is very intriguing. I hope you create this into something more! Have a great thanksgiving!
